[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Readability

[Jerry Harris]

I use the Grammarly extension for Browsers. (It also has a downloadable
app, I think.) It does a great job of providing real-time feedback on
spelling, grammar, passive voice, and on the overall tone of the message.
For instance, it rates this email's style as "neutral". And it rates this
email as well-formatted for easy reading.
